In John 3:36, Acts 14:2, 17:4, 19:9, 27:11, 28:24, Rom 11:30, 31,32, 15:31, Heb
3:18, 4:6, 4:11, and 11:31 the KJB uses some variant of BELIEVE, while most of
the modern versions, in all these verses use a variant of
OBEY.
Salvation is by FAITH (belief), not WORKS
(obedience). Why would a version put the emphasis on WORKS in over a dozen
verses where the KJB puts the emphasis on BELIEF?
This is not to discount the importance of obeying God, but to consistently appeal to obedience when the emphasis should be on belief can mislead a seeking person into thinking salvation is of works rather than faith.
Who
would be behind such changes?
